Hello! I back with a card for three challenges: Freshly Made Sketches, Just Us Girls and Color Hues. It is die week at JUGs and this time the challenge is green/luck so I decided to use the fun Printmaking Clovers stamp set for the card. I didn't die cut anything from green cardstock, but there is green on the die cut tag so I hope that works for the challenge. Anyway, let's see what I made.
The Color Hues combo is green and gold. So pretty together, right? Sometimes I struggle with this combo, but I think this time around I came up with a good balance for the colors. I used Altenew Fresh Dye inks in Green Fields and Shadow Creek for two-thirds of the clovers and then VersaMark watermark ink for the final one-third so that I could emboss it with gold embossing powder. I really like how it turned out. I die cut the clovers with a Simon Says Stamp rounded top tag. I die cut a white panel of cardstock, a portion of gold mirror cardstock and then trimmed down a strip of green glitter cardstock. I adhered everything and then finished with the sentiment that features the word lucky (luck) in the sentiment and a bow made up of metallic gold twine and dark green twine. I don't often make cards for St. Patrick's Day, but now I have two and so they will be going to a couple of friends.
Well, that is it for me. Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day!
